Summary: WONDERFUL!!!
Comment: I got this book for Father's Day and I certainly enjoyed it more than another tie! My Life In The Pits is filled with stories that are captivating and insightful. The chapter that continues to stick in my mind is the one about the brilliantly talented Tim Richmond who met such a sad, tragic fate. I used to love to watch him race but had never read much about him. I was sad to read what happened to him in his last years. Her stories are told in an interesting, insightful way, expecially the Richmond chapter. What I enjoyed most about the book is that the stories center around the drivers who really helped to push NASCAR to where it is today --- Earnhardt, Waltrip, Petty, Allison, Kulwicki, etc. This kind of tribute to these heroes is long overdue. Kudos to the author for a job well done.

Summary: GREAT book! This is a MUST buy for racing fans!
Comment: Wow! What a great read! I am so glad I bought this book - it will be my stocking stuffer of choice for this holiday season for both guys and gals. This is a great book for Winston Cup die-hard fans and for novices! Ronda Rich is hilarious. It's full of anecdotes about all of the greats, including Earnhardt, Petty, Childress, Schrader, and more ... and all from the female perspective with plenty of stories that could only come from an insider. I read Ronda's last book and thoroughly enjoyed it, and this book stays the course. I found myself laughing out loud and feeling sorry when the book was over! More than just a book about racing, the book serves up some deep life lessons in each chapter - the author looks at the truth behind the losses and disappointments that come with the industry. She's quite a teacher - obviously a spiritual woman - it's a great read for kids too. I'm hoping this is the first in a NASCAR series for her ... if you see this Ronda ... please give us another one! Can't wait!

Summary: Comfortable and Entertaining
Comment: I felt like I was sitting in Ronda Rich's living room and she was talking only to me as I read this book. It's so personal, warm, inviting and irresistible. There are no startling revelations in this book, except perhaps Dale Earnhardt's reaction to a race track incident with Bill Elliott, and I, for one, am thankful for that. I'm happy to see people who are heroes portrayed that way and not torn apart. This book is written in a way that I got the impression that if the author had crossed paths with bad people, she just didn't write that. Instead, she wrote of the good in people. Bless her for that. My 13-year-old son is a race fan and I have given him this book to read. I think he needs to know of the good that still lies in many people.
